pcie_capability_read*() could return 0, -EINVAL, or any of the PCIBIOS_* error codes (which are positive). This is behaviour is now changed to return only PCIBIOS_* error codes on error. This is consistent with pci_read_config_*(). Callers can now have a consistent way for checking which error has occurred. An audit of the callers of this function was made and no case was found where there is need for a change within the caller function or their dependencies down the heirarchy. Out of all caller functions discovered only 8 functions either persist the return value of pcie_capability_read*() or directly pass on the return value. 1.) "./drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/pcie.c" : => pcie_speeds() line-306 if (ret) { dd_dev_err(dd, "Unable to read from PCI config\n"); return ret; } remarks: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. This function passes on the return value. The return value was store only by hfi1_init_dd() line-15076 in ./drivers/infiniband/hw/hfi1/chip.c and it behave the same on all errors. So this patch will not require a change in this function. => update_lbus_info() line-276 if (ret) { dd_dev_err(dd, "Unable to read from PCI config\n"); return; } remarks: see below => save_pci_variables() line-415, 420, 425 if (ret) goto error; remarks: see below => tune_pcie_caps() line-471 if ((!ret) && !(ectl & PCI_EXP_DEVCTL_EXT_TAG)) { dd_dev_info(dd, "Enabling PCIe extended tags\n"); ectl |= PCI_EXP_DEVCTL_EXT_TAG; ret = pcie_capability_write_word(dd->pcidev, PCI_EXP_DEVCTL, ectl); if (ret) dd_dev_info(dd, "Unable to write to PCI config\n"); } remarks: see below => do_pcie_gen3_transition() line-1247, 1274 if (ret) { dd_dev_err(dd, "Unable to read from PCI config\n"); return_error = 1; goto done; } remarks: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. These functions' behaviour is the same on all errors, so they are not be affected by this patch. 2.) "./drivers/net/wireless/realtek/rtw88/pci.c": => rtw_pci_link_cfg*() line-1221 if (ret) { rtw_err(rtwdev, "failed to read PCI cap, ret=%d\n", ret); return; } remark: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. This function returns on all errors, so it will not be affected by this patch. 3.) "./drivers/pci/hotplug/pciehp_hpc.c": => pciehp_check_link_active() line-219 if (ret == PCIBIOS_DEVICE_NOT_FOUND || lnk_status == (u16)~0) return -ENODEV; remark: see below =>pciehp_card_present() line-404 {Same code as above} remark: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. This 2 functions will not be affected by this patch since they are only testing for *DEVICE_NOT_FOUND error. 4.) "./drivers/pci/pcie/bw_notification.c": =>pcie_link_bandwidth_notification_supported() line-26 return (ret == PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL) && (lnk_cap & PCI_EXP_LNKCAP_LBNC); remark: see below =>pcie_bw_notification_irq() line-56 if (ret != PCIBIOS_SUCCESSFUL || !events) return IRQ_NONE; remark: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. In these 2 functions returning PCIBIOS_BAD_REGISTER_NUMBER instead of -EINVAL as done in this patch will not affect the behaviour. 5.) "./drivers/pci/probe.c": => pci_configure_extended_tags() line-1951 if (ret) return 0; remark: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. This function will not be affected by this patch since it retuns 0 on ALL error codes. 6.) "./drivers/pci/pci-sysfs.c": => current_link_speed_show() line-180 if (err) return -EINVAL; remark: see below =>current_link_width_show() line-215 {same code as in the above function} remark: The variable "err" is the captured return value. This 2 functions will not be affected directly by this patch since it retuns -EINVAL on ALL error codes. However, depending on the intent, after this patch, this may now be to too generic. This is because it will then be possible to use the returned PCIBIOS_* error code to identify the error. 7.) "./drivers/dma/ioat/init.c": =>ioat3_dma_probe() line-1193 if (err) return err; remark: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. This function passes on the return value. Only ioat_pci_probe() line-1392 in the same file persists the return value and it's behaviour is the same on all errors. So this patch will not change the behaviour of these functions. 8.) "./drivers/pci/access.c": =>pcie_capability_clear_and_set_word() line-493 if (!ret) { val &= ~clear; val |= set; ret = pcie_capability_write_word(dev, pos, val); } return ret; =>pcie_capability_clear_and_set_dword() line-508 {same as above function} remark: The variable "ret" is the captured return value. This 2 functions will not be affected directly. But after this patch they will now be returning PCIBIOS_BAD_REGISTER_NUMBER instead of -EINVAL. No case was found where the return value of any of both functions were persisted. But their return values are passed on directly by: - pcie_capability_set_{word|dword}() and pcie_capability_clear_{word|dword}() in ./include/linux/pci.h lines(1100-1136): these pass on the received return values directly to: - pcie_capability_clear_dword() is not referenced anywhere - pcie_capability_set_dword() is referenced but it's return values are not cached - pcie_capability_{set, clear}_word() : return value passed on by pci_enable_pcie_error_reporting() in drivers/pci/pcie/aer.c lines-(350,362) these are used by other drivers to log errors, in all examined cases all errors are treated the same. - pcie_capability_clear_word() : return value passed on by pci_disable_pcie_error_reporting() in drivers/pci/pcie/aer.c lines-362 which treats all errors are treated the same. - pcie_set_readrq() line-5662 and pcie_set_mps() line-5703 in ./drivers/pci/pci.c : both functions pass on the return value of pcie_capability_clear_and_set_word() but also return -EINVAL in cases of some other errors. Currently these errors will not be differentiated, this patch will help differentiate errors in this kind of situation. The function will not be affected but rather it will be enhanced in correctness. - pqi_set_pcie_completion_timeout() line-7423 in ./drivers/scsi/smartpqi/smartpqi_init.c : This function will not be affected. Although, it passes on the return value, all error values are handled the same way by the only reference found at line-7473 in the same file.
